 * How do I add field level validation to an input field. 
   I want to be able to 
   validate against a regexpattern=”^(?!\s_$)[a-zA-Z ‘-,‘‛’′‵—–]_“and then have 
   the error message displayed above or below the field in redAnd for this to occur
   when the user exits the field not just at submission

 * Hello [@robifz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robifz/),
 * You can validate input against a regex pattern. You will get this option under
   _Settings & Integrations _-> _Settings_ section. ([see screenshot](https://prnt.sc/nBk7wJ_prSBb))
 * Please note that the validation will be checked on submit. There is no option
   to validate in real-time.
 * Thank you.
